A little update regarding the crafting hack that we've discussed in here.
Scott Hartsman have addressed the issue on this Reddit Thread an hour ago.
He says that the crafter spent weeks crafting and regrading hundreds and hundreds of items, to prep for regrading up to divine, and thus got several divines regrade successes within a short period of time.
If this is true then this guy has spent many 1000's of dollars, but this could be the explanation.
Although this thread wasn't about only this 1 hack, I thought I'd share this update anyway.
I'm a gamer and I play games, not virtual vending machines.
Originally posted by Headcheese21 If you go to youtube you can see all the hacks in there. It is out of control. I agree it was a poor launch. I figured Trion would be better prepared.
What I see is full servers much of the time and que on the pre launch servers often.
One month into the game the game is going forward still in spite of problems. At the same time western publisher AAA games besides wow seem to be in decline.
I have been logging into the servers over the past week and the current one and even during peek times I find little to none at High. The population on all servers has been continually dropping.
The poor customer service, poorly implemented design, and failure to respond to issues even during Alpha and Beta testing is resulting in many leaving the game.
I have not played regularly in a while, but like to check in to see if things have improved. I can say I see less gold spamming in the chat channels, so there is a positive.
While the recent bans have worked in removing hackers..as evident by the subreddits and posts on the official forums
of actual hacksites disgruntled that they have been caught...
unless XL changes their code and replaces hackshield aka wooden fence......it's going to be
100000000 hackers vs. Trion and the hackers will win......usually with quick vengeance with D D O S attacks
and stronger hacking tools.....
my sub expires in a couple of days and already we are seeing the servers subside to only the hardcore and landowning people
I see this game going the way of Vanguard and Wildstar though I think Vanguard will have lasted longer than both of these...yes I know Vanguard is done I am talking of longetivity...either way.....glad I am done with this pile of dung.
